Rental Services
HOW DOES IT WORK?
· You start by signing in and browsing the website, using the filters to select the date for your rental, along with your size etc. You then “rent”, we charge your credit card, you keep the piece for 4* (or 8) days, you return it, with the prepaid label (we do the cleaning) and that’s it.
*Your order will arrive on day one of your reservation, you will keep them for the following two days, and return them on the fourth day.
· The price of every garment varies based on the brand, the item, and the season. The rental price is generally valued at 10-20% of the retail price. All garments listed show the recommended retail price.
· The borrowing period is for 4 (or 8) days.
· Day 1 is the day you receive the garment and day 4 (or 8) is the day you will return the garment by 12pm.To return a garment by 12pm, you will need to have posted (time stamp will be issued) prior to 12pm and/or book a courier pick-up by 12pm.
HOW FAR IN ADVANCE CAN I BOOK A GARMENT?
You can place an order on a garment as far as 2 months before your event. When you place the order and secure the garment, you will be charged the rental price of the garment to ensure your reservation.
WHAT HAPPENS IF THE GARMENT ARRIVES CREASED?
· We will make sure your garment is steamed and wrinkle-free when we send it out to you, but we can’t control wrinkling that results from the shipping process. If the garment arrives creased – please hang the garment in the bathroom while having a shower – this will help the creases fall out. If there is still a problem and you need to steam the dress – turn the garment inside out and lightly steam the garment from a safe distance. Please ensure you never directly apply an iron or steam to the garment. Most garments are extremely fragile and if you feel unsure about this process, it is best to call F.A.M. so we can help you.
· Please follow the 10 commandments included in your packaging, which outlines how to care for the garments.
HOW CAN I BE SURE THAT A GARMENT WILL FIT ME?
· We ask before you book a rental – that you know your measurements and can relate them back to the dress measurements located on the site.
· If you need help in determining your measurements – follow the video provided on the website – which gives you a step by step guide. You only need to do this once and then you can feel confident in knowing that the garment you choose will be best suited to you. Always take into consideration the fabric – different fabric stretches and moves to fit the body.
· Email us at bookings@fashionaltamoda.com with any questions.
· Book an appointment to try on the garments at our Styling Suite – located in Sydney.
I LIVE INTERSTATE - HOW CAN I TRY ON GARMENTS?
